Instead of heading directly to your hotel in Bordeaux or Bilbao, consider enhancing your transfer experience by exploring the treasures of the Basque country! (100€/extra hour supplement).

Select stages from the list below to create your personalized journey:

• Getaria, a charming fishing village, is renowned for its port and two famous natives: the couturier Balenciaga and Elcano, the first sailor to circumnavigate the globe.

• Txakoli winery: This dry white wine from the Basque region, produced in vineyards high above Getaria (Spain) and Fontarrabie, is slightly fizzy and served by raising and lowering the bottle above the glass to aerate it generously. The ocean-facing vineyards benefit from sea spray, giving it a unique flavor! Best served chilled with fish and seafood hors d’oeuvres, and pairs deliciously with salted anchovies and tuna in oil.

• Zumaia geopark and its spectacular Flysch cliffs, made famous by “Game of Thrones” filming! Flysch, a superimposition of terrestrial layers, allows us to trace Earth’s history back 100 million years. Vertiginous!

• Monte Igueldo offers breathtaking views of San Sebastian and its famous Concha, the bay shaped like a scallop shell!

• Hondarribia, a medieval village facing France, features walls and a fortified castle that recall the historic conflicts between these two nations. Explore the old quarter with its cobbled streets and magnificent mansions, ending at the Bidasoa riverbanks with the fishermen’s quarter and its renowned pintxo bars.

• Saint Jean de Luz: Visit the town center with its stunning beach, pedestrian shopping streets, fishing port, and grand 17th-century houses. Your guide will discuss various themes: whaling, wealthy shipowners, the privateering era, Louis XIV’s marriage, Napoleon III’s town reorganization, tourism development, and Art Deco treasures.

• Biarritz lighthouse, perched on a hill overlooking the town. Here, your guide will explain the Pyrenees’ geological wealth, the Basque country’s origins, and the love story between Emperor Napoleon III and his young wife. Quickly reach Biarritz’s center to discover its history through must-see sites like the Grand Plage, Hôtel du Palais, Orthodox Church, fishing port, and Virgin Rock. This magnificent stroll offers splendid photo opportunities while understanding Biarritz’s international fame and its influence in the fashion world.

• Hossegor, Europe’s surfing capital, has attracted artists since the early 20th century. Initially, renowned writers; today, young designers, start-ups, and concept stores! It has become a must-visit town for its small designer boutiques, unique venues, charming Basque-Landes-style villas, and legendary waves.

• The Dune du Pilat is a unique feature of the Aquitaine coastline, a natural site of exoticism and majesty. Standing over 103 m high, 600 m wide, and 3 km long, Europe’s highest dune offers a striking contrast between forest, sand, and ocean.
